This particular week, I assigned the same catapult challenge that we did at the October PD. The challenge was to see who could fling 10 candy pumpkins the fastest and the farthest. They were given a cup of items that they could use, a sheet of directions, and a video example. For this challenge they worked in pairs. The competition was fierce!!!!]]> 2018-11-09 16:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/krystle_scott/yowbcrk0n4km/wish/302655487
